Influence of PCR Consumables on the Accuracy of Real-Time PCR Experiments

Thermal cycling causes traditional PCR plates to warp—literally. Up to 2mm of movement can push wells off-center, compromise seals, and lead to inconsistent results. Two-component plates anchor each well with a rigid polycarbonate frame, preventing expansion and ensuring even thermal distribution. The result? Stronger seals, more consistent data, and reduced edge effects.
